Isn't it Ed Leigh? He did Ski Sunday & he's a good boarder. A nob yes, but he can be quite funny with it.
Aha! Ed Leigh is the new Alan Partridge!

OK riders, random start. Riders ready, watch the gate.....it's muffled but you can just hear it.

To 'keep it real' apparently. Lycra's banned so the sport stays closer to it's roots. Though if that's the case, the riders should all hang around smoking soapbar and sneering at rollerbladers for a couple of hours first.
There's a fairly strong concensus in the sport that it would make the sport look shit. Some Aussie fella tried it once along removing the peak from his helemt and was made to look like a twat. Roots of the sport are in motocross so a lot of the kit is very similar other than the shorts some wear.
Good start I thought, some good results and a few surprises.
I'm at work tomorrow and Friday so I'll have to watch catch up
.That's nuts! Surely if wearing lycra and using a more aerodynamic helmet could shave half a second off their time they should be allowed to

Missed it
It had finished on the side I'm watching it and hockey's on.
This is the first time there's actually nothing on that I'm bothered about watching and I'm managing to get some housework and cooking done
*goes to see if I can watch live online*

It's a great course, wouldn't mind a go on that myself. Some of the transitions are really sweet and the rhythm section looks perfect, reckon it'd be brilliant fun trying to keep the front end up through that on a big power-manual! I wonder if they'll keep it open to the public once the games are over?

Two faceplants last year say 'it's harder than it looks to take it up late'.

The Commando Roll was the first really useful 'trick' I learned and it got me out of trouble on many an occasion. The people who hurt themselves are usually those who forget to ditch the bike as soon as things go wrong; trying to land something which obviously won't land - let go of the bars, chuck the bike and worry about the stuff you can't replace at your local bike shop!

Yeah!
Why the roll-eyes? If they want to progress the sport surely they should embrace sport science like every single other sport in the olympics.

I'm sure you'll work it out if you keep watching the event.
